    From your document, look at the screen after you said, "As you can see Slot 7 HSIG-MS1 Resource is HSIG dated 5/4/2014".  On this screen, have you tried right-clicking on the backup set that you want and then doing a restore?

    I remember some other users complaining about the same problem.  I can't remember what is the solution.  Have you tried updating to SP2 and the latest hotfixes?

    Are you able to use the "Search" feature from the restore wizard to search for the data which you want to restore ?

    If not, uncheck the option "use storage-based catalogs" and then recatalog the tape. Check the restore selections again.
